Garmin Forerunner 305 transfer trouble

[rbeckert]

I ran with my Forerunner 305 for the first time today and transfered the information into the Garmin Training software and had no trouble. I tried transfering the tracks in Topofusion (version 2.85) and it transfered ± 195 tracks and all but 3 tracks were "zeroed out". The 3 that transfered looked valid on the map and even show a profile dialog when right clicking on the track and selecting the Profile option.

Any suggestions?

We've had a couple reports that the new forerunners are working OK, but it seems things are not 100%.  I will be getting one very soon and will work out whatever problems there are.

Thanks for the patience.

I've been testing my Forerunner 305 and so far it works 100%.  I've only downloaded a few workouts, though.

Are you using the Heart Rate strap and/or cadence sensor?

Anything different you might be doing?  I just turn it on, hit start, then stop and reset before downloading.

BTW - the tracks (at 1 point per second) look AWESOME so far.  I can see I'm going to have to go re-GPS nearly every trail around because this data is so good (very smooth turns).

Thanks.

Nevermind, I am seeing the problem now.  I should have a fix available this weekend.

Sorry about the bug.  It must handle HR data a little different than the Forerunner 301.

Thanks for taking a look at the problem. Yes, I use the heart rate strap.

OK, got the fix.  New beta version is at:

(For registered users)

For demo users download:

Save it to "C:\Program Files\TopoFusion" overwriting the existing file.

Let me know how it works.  Thanks.

YES! Perfect. Thanks for your help, Krein.
